“Not only did Kyrstin take excellent custodial care of my cat, she spent time playing with him. As a result, my cat was not out of sorts after we returned home from vacation.”
About: I’ve had dogs as pets my whole life! I grew up volunteering at animal shelters so I have plenty of hands on experience. I’ve been freelance pet sitting for about 5 years now. I have cat sit for 5 different families in the past. I never had a cat so I feel this helped me gain some cat experience. I’ve dog sat for senior dogs requiring special medication and have had senior dogs myself. I’m a huge animal lover and am so excited to meet your pups/ kitties! I’m perfect to call for mid day dog walking or a drop in visit when you’re at work! I’m currently unemployed and am looking forward to pet sitting/ dog walking full time! I am a very structured person so I will follow any and all directions that you leave for me. I will do as much as I can to make your pet feel at ease while you are on your family vacation, work trip, etc. I’ve been an animal lover all my life so I promise to give your pets the same love & affection that I do give to my own fur babies! I know everyone says that, but I truly enjoy being around animals!
“Jessica was absolutely amazing! She took excellent care of my elderly cat and followed all of my instructions perfectly. She even went above and beyond by cleaning up after the cat and taking gorgeous pictures as updates throughout her visits. I would happily book her again, and I recommend her highly!”
“Rene did an outstanding job taking care of my cat Max! She was always on time, fed him and gave him his medication, and lots of attention. Everything was neat and tidy when we returned as well. We will definitely be booking with Rene again in the future!”
About: I’ve been caring for other people’s dogs and cats for years, with my experience caring for pets going all the way back to my teens. For the past two years, I’ve especially loved walking and doing drop-in visits for dogs in my neighborhood, and I’ve also cared for cats through house sitting and drop-in visits over the years. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each fur baby, learning their personality and routine, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their humans are away. I’m a dog mom myself, so I know how important it is to have someone you truly trust caring for your pets. After having such wonderful experiences using Rover for my own fur babies, I decided it was time to join the sitter side and share that same kind of care with other families! 🐾 I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which makes welcoming another fur baby into my home an easy fit! I personally provide all care, so your dog will have plenty of company, attention, playtime, and love throughout the day rather than spending long stretches alone. I’m happy to follow their usual feeding, potty, walking, and bedtime routine as closely as possible. Your fur baby will be welcomed into my dog-loving home with a fully fenced-in yard and two friendly dogs who love having company! I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so your dog will get plenty of attention, outdoor time, and companionship throughout the day. I walk my dogs regularly and would love to include your fur baby in our walks when appropriate. I’ll personally provide their care and follow their normal feeding, potty, sleeping, and care routines as closely as possible so they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home while their humans are away.
“Michele was an excellent caretaker for our two cats while we were away on a long trip. She communicated quickly and clearly about everything and there were no issues at all! We definitely felt like our pets were in good hands.”
“Lauren helped with our two for babies last week and this week plus the weekend. She came for the meet and greet, and the dogs were very comfortable with her right then. Lauren comes on time, follows the care directions, communicates promptly and goes an extra mile to keep our fur babies happy. I feel confident leaving our home and our two dogs under Lauren's supervision. I already booked Lauren for more visits for this week and next two weeks. If Lauren is available, we'll be booking her more in the future for sure. Have no doubts to consider Lauren for your fur babies.”
About: I personally have 4 cats and have taken care of them for more than 10 years. I've also taken care of my friends' dogs. They relied on me to feed and take good care of them. I'm a junior in college and have plenty time over the summer. I'm available taking care of pets overnight. I prefer weekdays but sometimes I can also do weekends. There is a lake near my house and I can take them for a walk at there. I have a deck to ensure their safety. My family loves animals, which keeps them company.
About: As an only child, I always wanted a cat. When I was 4, we adopted my cat sister and the rest has been history. Throughout my life, cats have always been present. Now, as I have my own family, we have expanded to have a brother sister duo that are my babies. I would love to come care for your fur babies as well Between my two boys and my two fur babies, we have a busy day full of love and play. Rocky and Rosie are always up with me for an early breakfast before I’m out the door. They always great me and their big brothers as we come home and love to play at night as we make dinner. They are the ultimate snuggle bugs at bedtime. I will work with you to establish a connection with companion to gain their trust. I love to know their routine, their likes and their dislikes. We will work together to make your home a safe environment while you’re away, in addition to safe surroundings (should you have a dog that needs a walk).
About: I’ve had experience with both dogs and cats since I was a toddler! My family has always had Sheltie dogs, and I have always had cats of my own! I have experience as a foster parent to cats and kittens of all sizes. My cat Tater Tot is a foster fail! I also have experience dog and cat sitting for friends over the years, including in home care, dog walking, senior dog care, and puppy care as I raised my own dog, Honey, from just a few months old! I am currently in the midst of starting my own pastry business, so I am extremely flexible as I work through the paperwork and business planning! I am completely flexible in my schedule, and am available any day of the week any time as my work is a currently remote and flexible! I currently do not offer care in my home, but I am very comfortable doing pet care in clients homes. My most recent dog-sitting client had three dogs of various ages and temperaments, and I was comfortable entering the home, walking and spending time with them, feeding and giving the elderly dog medication, then crating the two others! As a pet parent, I know how important it is to spend quality time and play time with pets while they are missing their family!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - North Potomac
Brooke has been a Godsend to me and my fur baby, Henry. I’ve used her for all my cat sitting needs recently because she is so thoughtful, communicative and responsible. My cat is quite shy and has warmed to her - I recommend any nervous cats to be in her care. She also helped me out last minute due to a family emergency. She was very flexible and responsive, cleaned out my fridge and even brought over litter to help when I ran out. She is my favourite cat sitter 🤍
Jony is a great sitter— communicative, responsive, friendly, and professional. We’re grateful he was available on such short notice and that he cared for our cats like they were his own. We especially appreciated the pictures and updates that showed each cat’s personality.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
